حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّ الْهُذَيْلِ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ، وَكَانَتْ

بَايَعَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ كُنَّا لَا نَعُدُّ الْكُدْرَةَ وَالصُّفْرَةَ بَعْدَ الطُّهْرِ شَيْئًا

Umm Atiyyah who took an oath of allegiance to the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: We would not take into consideration brown and yellow (fluid) after purification.

উম্মু ‘আত্বিয়্যাহ (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর নিকট বাই‘আত করেছিলেন। তিনি বলেন, হায়িয থেকে পবিত্র হওয়ার পর মেটে ও হলুদ রংয়ের কিছু নির্গত হলে আমরা তা (হায়িয হিসাবে) গণনা করতাম না।[1] সহীহ।

ام عطیہ رضی اللہ عنہا (انہوں نے نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے بیعت کی تھی) کہتی ہیں ہم حیض سے پاک ہو جانے کے بعد زردی اور گدلے پن کو کچھ نہیں سمجھتے تھے۔

Resulullah (Sallallahu aleyhi ve Sellem)'e bi'at etmiş olan Ümmü Atiyye'den, şöyle demiştir: "Biz hayz, bittikten sonra sarıldığı ve bulanıklığı bir şey (hayz) saymazdık." Diğer tahric: Nesai, hayz; İbni Mace, tahare; Dârimi vudu; Ayrıca bk. Buhari, hayz

What it means

The female Companion ’Umm ‘Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported that after attaining purity from menstruation, women, during the lifetime of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), would not consider the fluid discharged from the vagina - which tends to be blackish or yellowish - to be menses. Hence, such a discharge did not stop them from praying or fasting.

What it teaches

  • The fluid discharged from a woman's vagina - after attaining purity from menses - is of no significance even if it looks brownish or yellowish out of the traces derived from the blood.
  • The brownish and yellowish discharge during the usual menstruation period is considered menses because it is blood during the normal bleeding period but it is mixed with fluid.
  • A woman must not refrain from praying or fasting because of the brownish and yellowish discharge after attaining purity from menses; rather, she should make ablution and offer prayer.
